Report Description

Passive components are the foundation stone of optical network systems. Most of these components such as optical cables, optical power splitters, optical couplers, optical encoders, optical connectors, patch cords and pigtails, optical amplifiers, fixed and variable attenuators, optical transceivers, optical circulators, optical filters, wavelength division multiplexers/de-multiplexers and others can now be found in use in the current data networks and FTTH applications. The key players in this market are continually focusing on designing, developing and manufacturing of innovative and customized solutions that comply with international standards and meet the ever increasing demands of passive optical networks (PON) for the highest optical and mechanical specifications.

This market research study analyzes the passive optical components market on a global level, and provides estimates in terms of revenue (USD billion) from 2014 to 2020. It recognizes the drivers and restraints affecting the industry and analyzes their impact over the forecast period. Moreover, it identifies the significant opportunities for market growth in the coming years.

The report segments the market on the basis of geography into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific (APAC), and Rest of the World (RoW), estimated in terms of revenue (USD billion). In addition, the report segments the market based on components into optical cables, optical power splitters, optical couplers, optical encoders, optical connectors, patch cords and pigtails, optical amplifiers, fixed and variable attenuators, optical transceivers, optical circulators, optical filters, wavelength division multiplexers/de-multiplexers and others. Based on applications, these are further segmented into interoffice, fiber in the loop (FITL), loop feeder, synchronous optical network (SONET), hybrid fiber-coaxial cable (HFC) and synchronous digital hierarchy (SDH) systems. All these segments have also been estimated on the basis of geography in terms of revenue (USD billion).
